Description

A different kind of zucchini variety: thanks to the open bush, the light green striped fruits are clearly visible and easy to harvest. Early yield. High yields are not to be expected, but we are rewarded with a unique culinary experience: the zucchinis have a strong taste of their own. A real treat! (from Zollinger)

Non hybrid

Not frost resistant

Growing tips

Sow 1 seed from mid-April in a pot of 10 at approx. 20°C. Cover only lightly with soil or sand and keep evenly moist. Plant out from May 20 (watch out for snails!) at the bottom of the compost heap or in nutrient-rich soil. Frost-free cultivation necessary. Spacing 80-100 cm on all sides.
